134.4 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is asking us for a missing leg on the triangle, lets call it x. Using the Pythagorean theorem (a²+b²=c²), we can figure out what value is missing (either a or b, they are interchangeable).

replace the values in the equation.

83²+x²=158²

get rid of the exponents.

6,889+ x² = 24,964.

subtract 6,889 from 24,964.

x²=18,075.

find the square root on both sides of the equation.

x=134.4432966.

I am assuming you want this rounded to the nearest tenth.

134.4 is your answer.
